Happy New Year

For most people the new year is about making resolutions and busting tail trying to keep them. I have decided that this year that is out the window. Why should I make any goal that I will fail at in a matter of hours if not days. So this year I am going to try to be a better me. That is something that I can keep and be proud of what I accomplish.
Our family doesn't do a big ta da with bringing in the new year. We stayed up with the kids playing Yahtzee then popped in a movie to wait out the rest of the time. Laine was the only one who made it to midnight. He went out on the porch with some pans and banged and screamed "Happy New Year" for all to hear. After about 5 minutes of that he was back in the house and we all went straight to bed.
I enjoyed playing games with my children and spending some good time as a family. That to me is what new years is about.
